Surely It Would Not Be That Hard To Make Passenger Behaviour Just Slightly Better?

Even just a simple line in the code to identify when a train goes out of 'passenger service' and nuke all the passengers.

Then we would not have to do depot/ECS moves with a train full of passengers, or see end of line trains still packed.

Also a basic time limit to when passenger animations appear on trains prior to departure, so that you don't spawn into Euston at (for example) 2am and see the 5.30am 390 full of expectant travellers, who have arrived two and a half hours before their departure just to be on the safe side!!

 

Hi tom#2834

Apparently, this is not so easy for DTG, because you have been telling us since around TSW3 that you are improving the passengers.

But so far, nothing has changed in terms of passenger behaviour.

 

As I understand it, that code's already in. It doesn't work because of the cap on how many NPCs can be in a certain station/on a certain platform.

 

So removing passengers is not possible because there's too many passengers?

 

It’s even more embarrassing when you think that TSW2: Rush Hour’s entire selling point was a better passenger systems. I think I’m correct in saying BML still doesn’t have the updated passengers.

 

I'm pretty sure they also said that passengers are now fixed and not present during empty movements as one of the selling points of TSW6.

 

Not even I get to the station that far ahead of departure

 

Make passenger behaviour slight better???
Some people are accusing DTG of 'sitting down on the job' on this one

 

Not had that one before, i get the falling through platforms leaving just there heads and shoulders showing, ejecting out of trains through the roof at high speed, then my all-time fav the confused passenger who just stands there opening and closing there umbrella, even after the train there waiting for has left (it seems to be contagious too as by the end of the day there are tons of them doing the same thing) oh and i almost forgot the poor souls who can't make there mind up and get on and off the same train till the doors close

 

As long as I remember that was not what they said. The issue fixed was passengers not getting on the train and I do see this in effect compared to TSW5.

Sometimes getting your camera far away and go back can do the trick.

 

Is that some form of prisiadki?

 

I also remember that yes

 

What annoys me most about the passengers is they don't leave their seats, once they have plonked their arses down, they don't leave!

Shame god mode hasn't got a function to chuck all the buggers off

 

It's more difficult than you think...otherwise you'd be doing it yourself =-)
I mean how hard is surgery really? Just cut someone up, rummage around a it, sew it up... done!
I see it on TV all the time.
Looks super easy to do.
